Geez, John, sorry you took this seriously. I didn’t. I knew everyone on board the committee boat, all talented volunteers, and frequently was on board myself. There is always room for a chuckle in my life and they gave me a good one that day. And Moosehead should only be given to folks you really don’t like very much:)

I’ve served on enough race committees that took their work seriously and were respected for it. No place for that, even in jest. It just shouldn’t happen. Right up there with the Kazoos at the Manhattan club. it sounds funny but just isn’t professional. Send them a 6 pack of Moosehead.
